Rework Rockbox Utility update version number check.

The version check failed on subrelease versions (as the 1.2.5-1 rebuild done
for Mac) and detected an updated version that is in fact an outdated one.
Rework the comparison completely, move it to the Utils class and display some
more information in the status bar upon update check. Especially keep a notice
in the status bar if an updated version was found.
